In this episode of The Morning Charge, we step into Acts Chapter 10, the moment the gospel officially crosses cultural and religious boundaries. What began in Jerusalem now explodes into the nations as God confronts Peter’s framework and prepares him to enter the house of Cornelius, a Gentile.

Through a divine vision, a Spirit led encounter, and an outpouring of the Holy Spirit, Acts 10 reveals that God shows no partiality. The same Spirit who fell at Pentecost falls again, this time on those once considered outsiders. Heaven interrupts Peter’s sermon to confirm what God has already decided. The dividing wall begins to collapse.

We explore the significance of Peter’s vision, Cornelius’ hunger, the Holy Spirit’s sudden outpouring, and why this chapter is a theological turning point for the early Church. This is not just a story about inclusion. It is a declaration that the fire of God is not confined to preference, tradition, or culture.

If you are part of the burning ones and the wild ones, this episode will challenge you to examine the boundaries you may still be holding onto and to follow the Spirit wherever He leads. The gospel was never meant to stay local. It was always meant to go global.

This is the chapter where barriers fall.
Where hunger meets obedience.
Where the fire proves it belongs to whoever believes.

In this episode of The Morning Charge, we walk through Acts Chapter 9 and witness one of the most dramatic turning points in the entire New Testament. Saul, a violent persecutor of the Church, is confronted by the risen Christ on the road to Damascus. In a single moment, rage meets revelation, zeal meets truth, and a destroyer becomes a chosen vessel.

Acts 9 is not just a conversion story. It is a reminder that Jesus can interrupt any path, redeem any past, and redirect any life. We explore the significance of Saul’s blindness, the obedience of Ananias, the power of being called “Brother” before proving anything, and how God uses unlikely people to carry global assignments. This chapter also sets the stage for the expansion of the gospel beyond cultural boundaries and introduces the man who will become the apostle to the Gentiles.

If you’ve ever wondered whether your past disqualifies you, whether your zeal needs refining, or whether God can truly rewrite a story, this episode will challenge and encourage you. The same Jesus who stopped Saul is still stopping, calling, filling, and sending people today.

This is the chapter where persecution turns into purpose.
Where blindness turns into vision.
Where a man is transformed and the mission accelerates.

In this episode of The Morning Charge, we dive into Acts Chapter 8 and witness what happens when persecution meets a Church that is truly on fire. Stephen has been martyred, pressure rises, and believers are scattered throughout the region, but instead of shrinking back, they carry the gospel everywhere they go.

Acts 8 reveals that revival cannot be contained within four walls. Ordinary believers become bold evangelists. Philip crosses cultural lines into Samaria, demons are cast out, the sick are healed, and great joy fills an entire city. We also confront the story of Simon the sorcerer and learn the difference between being impressed by power and being transformed by surrender.

The chapter closes with a divine appointment between Philip and the Ethiopian eunuch, proving that God orchestrates both revival in cities and salvation in deserts. The gospel moves beyond comfort, beyond culture, and toward the nations.

This teaching reminds us that pressure does not stop the move of God. It spreads it.

When truth collides with tradition, something has to give. We walk through Stephen’s sweeping retelling of Israel’s story, from Abraham’s bare‑knuckled trust to Joseph’s unlikely rise to Moses’ burning‑bush surrender, and ask why people cling to heritage while resisting the very Presence their heritage points to. Stephen honors Scripture, quotes the prophets, and then draws a sharp line: God cannot be boxed into buildings, systems, or safe routines. The result isn’t a tidy debate; it’s a holy confrontation that ends with heaven opening and Jesus standing to receive a faithful witness.

Together we unpack how promise precedes proof, how rejection can be formation, and how holy ground appears wherever God speaks. We explore the cycle Stephen exposes, God sends a deliverer, people resist, God advances anyway, and how it culminates in the Righteous One. When rage rises, Stephen’s final words echo Jesus, planting a seed that will soon bloom in the heart of a young man named Saul. Those garments at Saul’s feet aren’t a throwaway detail; they signal complicity and a mysterious marking. The persecutor will become the apostle, and persecution will scatter the church in a way that multiplies the message far beyond Jerusalem.

If you’re wrestling with complacency, craving courage, or wondering how to follow the Holy Spirit when it disrupts your safe plans, this conversation is your wake‑up call. We talk candidly about choosing Presence over place, truth over self‑preservation, and mission over maintenance, and why a church that refuses comfort often finds power. Listen, share with a friend who needs bold faith, and then tell us: which moment from Acts 7 reshaped your view of God’s story?

In Acts 6, the early Church explodes with growth, and that growth reveals pressure points: cultural tension, overlooked needs, and the first major complaint. Joshua breaks down how the apostles responded with Holy Spirit led structure, empowering seven Spirit-filled men so prayer and the Word stayed protected, and the mission accelerated. We also meet Stephen, a servant leader who wasn’t an apostle yet moved in power, wisdom, and miracles… and then faced opposition and false accusations with heaven’s mark on him.

To close, Joshua's wife Brandy, answers a question on healing and brings practical, Holy Spirit led perspective: healing can be instant, but many times it’s walked out through alignment, renewing the mind with Scripture, adjusting lifestyle, cleaning out what needs to go, and changing what we speak.

If you’re carrying pressure, needing help, or believing for healing, this episode will call you back to the secret place and show you how Acts 6 leadership looks in real life.

Acts 4 is where the trouble hits. Peter and John get arrested, threatened, and dragged in front of the highest religious authority, because they preached resurrection and used the name of Jesus, BUT...the Bible says something huge, “Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, answered.” Not Peter’s nerves… not Peter’s personality… the Holy Spirit. They refused to be silenced, and when they got released, the church prayed in unity for boldness. Then, the place shook. They were filled again and preached with parrhesia, unrestrained, free-flowing boldness that doesn’t tailor truth to make everyone happy...and the fruit? Unity, generosity, and a community where selfishness didn’t belong and nobody lacked. This is the kind of church we’re called to be.

Acts 2 was the outpouring, Acts 3 is the overflow. Pentecost didn’t end in the upper room, it spilled into everyday life. Peter and John didn’t go hunting for a miracle, they went to the temple at a normal prayer time and right at the gate called Beautiful, a man crippled from birth is touched by resurrection power. This episode is about expectancy, authority, and confidence, because we don’t lack power, we lack confidence in what we carry. We talk about repentance that leads to refreshing, restoration as God’s plan, and why the church is on a rescue mission. You’re not called to stare at the fire, you’re called to blaze a trail that leads others to it.
